pipes 200 which have different diameters and are connected to be extendable. For instance, a plurality of the connectinginner pipes 210 of which the diameter is decreased gradually are connected to be extendable, and a plurality of the connectingouter pipes 230 of which the diameter is decreased gradually are screw-coupled to be extendable, so that the connectingpipes 200 can elongate between thebase pipe 100 and the finishing'pipe 300. - The
finishing pipe 300 forms the end part of the present invention. As illustrated inFIGS. 1 and 2 , thefinishing pipe 300 includes: the finishinginner pipe 310 that is formed in a square pipe shape and is coupled to the inner surface of the connectinginner pipe 210 to be extendable; and a finishingouter pipe 330 that is formed in a circular pipe shape and is screw-coupled to the inner surface of the connectingouter pipe 230 to be extendable; and a connectingmember 350 for connecting the outer end portions of the finishinginner pipe 310 and the finishingouter pipe 330. - Referring to
FIGS. 2 and 3 , as described above, the finishinginner pipe 310 is formed in the square pipe to correspond to the shape of the connectinginner pipe 210 and is coupled to the inner surface of the connectinginner pipe 210 to be extendable. The finishinginner pipe 310 hasthird tow rims 311 protruding from both sides of the lower portion of the outer surface thereof.

The finishingouter pipe 330 haskey seats 333 formed at the upper end portion of the inner circumferential surface thereof so thatcoupling keys 352 of the connectingmember 350 which will be described later are coupled with the key seats. Referring toFIG. 3 , athird detent 332 is formed on the lower portion of the outer surface of the finishingouter pipe 330 so as to be caught to asecond notch 233 of the connectingouter pipe 230. - The connecting
member 350 connects the finishinginner pipe 310 and the finishingouter pipe 330 with each other so as to rotate the finishingouter pipe 330 simultaneously according to the rotation of the finishinginner pipe 310. The connectingmember 350 includes aconnection cover 351 connected to finish outer end portions of the finishinginner pipe 310 and the finishingouter pipe 330, and a fixingbolt 354 for fixing theconnection cover 351. - Referring to

Here, thecoupling binding part 353 is formed in a polygonal shape corresponding to the shape of thecoupling recess 312 of the finishinginner pipe 310 so that the rotational force of the finishinginner pipe 310 is transferred to theconnection cover 351 as it is. - The fixing
bolt 354 penetrates through the counterbore of theconnection cover 351 and is screw-coupled with atap hole 313 of the finishinginner pipe 310 so as to fix theconnection cover 351 to the finishinginner pipe 310. In this instance, because the inner end portion of the finishingouter pipe 330 is screw-coupled to the connectingouter pipe 230, there is no need to fix theconnection cover 351 and the finishingouter pipe 330 using bolts. - Now, referring to the attached drawings, the general operation relationship of the telescopic pipe according to the embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail.
- First, when the base
inner pipe 110 rotates around therotary shaft 111 by external driving power, the connectinginner pipe 210 and the finishinginner pipe 310 are rotated at the same time. - Next, the rotational force of the finishing
inner pipe 310 is transferred to the finishingouter pipe 330 as it is through the connectingmember 350 so that the finishinginner pipe 310 and the finishingouter pipe 330 are rotated at the same time. The finishingouter pipe 330 is guided by the secondfemale screw 231 of the connectingouter pipe 230 so as to be extended while rotating as illustrated inFIG. 2 . - For your reference, the dotted arrows illustrated in
FIGS. 6 to 8 indicate rotational states and directions of the baseinner pipe 110, the connectinginner pipe 210, and the finishinginner pipe 310, and the solid line arrows indicate rotational states and directions of the connectingouter pipe 230 and the finishingouter pipe 330. - Next, as illustrated in
FIG. 7 , when thethird detent 332 is locked to thesecond notch 233 of the connectingouter pipe 230 by the rotation of the finishingouter pipe 330, the extended distance of the finishingouter pipe 330 is at the maximum value. - Continuously, because the rotational force of the finishing
outer pipe 330 is transferred to the connectingouter pipe 230 by thethird detent 332 locked to thesecond notch 233, as illustrated inFIG. 8 , the connectingouter pipe 230 and the finishingouter pipe 330 are rotated together. - In this instance, because the
second retaining jaw 211 of the connectinginner pipe 210 is caught to thethird tow rim 311 of the finishinginner pipe 310, the connectingouter pipe 230 is towed by the finishinginner pipe 310 to be extended. - Finally, as illustrated in
FIG. 9 , when the second decent 232 is locked to thefirst notch 132 of the baseouter pipe 130 by the rotation of the connectingouter pipe 230, the extended distance of the connecting outer pipe is at the maximum value. - Meanwhile, a detailed description of the operational relationship that the telescopic pipe is retracted will be omitted, since the operational relationship that the telescopic pipe is retracted is carried in reverse order of the operational relationship that the telescopic pipe is extended.
- However, the
rotary shaft 111 is rotated in the opposite direction by the external driving power. After the rotation of the finishingouter pipe 330 is finished, the connectingouter pipe 230 is rotated. As illustrated inFIG. 4 , when the telescopic pipe is retracted completely, the finishinginner pipe 310 and the connectinginner pipe 210 are locked to the bottom surface of the baseinner pipe 110 so as not to be retracted any more. - Meanwhile,
